[00:09:16] <paulej72> Hola. I jsut finished migrating our issues from slashcode to rehash
[00:15:35] <BadCoderFinger> Yikes, lightning, gotta bail...
[00:15:43] -!- BadCoderFinger has quit [Quit: Weather]
[00:16:18] <juggs> Hey paulej72, how's things going?

[00:22:53] -!- Azrael has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[00:24:33] <dx3bydt3> In case nobody has noticed, or mentioned, the comment totals on the front page are not updating.
[00:26:14] <juggs> Thanks dx3bydt3 - I noticed a few minutes ago and have flagged it up also. Just need someone with the correct access to be around to fix :)
[00:42:17] <juggs> dx3bydt3, comment totals now working again :) We're still squashing the gremlins / teething issues out of the platform changes associated with the rehash effort + internal architecture changes. Some things inevitably only reveal themselves in production rather than staging / test when operating at this scale with limited resources. We'll get there :)

[00:44:44] -!- mode/#Soylent [+v Azrael] by Imogen
[00:44:56] <dx3bydt3> Indeed. Thanks for the update, your efforts are appreciated.
[00:46:23] <paulej72> juggs: I am fine, how are you doing
[00:47:44] <juggs> dx3bydt3, thank NCommander and paulej72 - I just talk a lot around here and shake sticks which are mostly ignored (thankfully) :)
[00:48:55] -!- SpallsHurgenson [SpallsHurgenson!~SpallsHur@Soylent/Users/656/SpallsHurgenson] has joined #Soylent
[00:49:31] <juggs> paulej72, doing fine here thanks... "fine" being a low bar jump :)
[00:49:56] <rune_> juggs, bar code for 5th of anything that's on the floor?
[00:49:58] <juggs> OFFS SpallsHurgenson, cover yourself!
[00:50:02] <chromas> I thought stick shaking in public channels was frowned upon
[00:50:54] <juggs> rune_, are you speaking in riddles?
[00:51:05] * SpallsHurgenson returns from an relaxing personal day.... erm, I mean, recovers from a horrible 24-hour flu :)
[00:51:32] <rune_> juggs, the line you gave paulej72, being 'fine' is a low bar to jump. I'm equating the 'bar' with a bottle of alcohol on the floor.
[00:52:46] * SpallsHurgenson took a tour of a nearby* cave system and then visited his alma mater. Oh, and I got ice-cream :)
[00:52:57] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, your powers of recovery are phenomenal.
[00:53:30] <SpallsHurgenson> never doubt the power of ice-cream to cure!
[00:58:40] * juggs points at SpallsHurgenson and shouts "mad cat woman!"
[01:01:18] <SpallsHurgenson> I was never in a living cave system before.
[01:01:50] <SpallsHurgenson> there was a disappointing number of goblins, dragons and power-mad wizards, however
[01:03:21] <SpallsHurgenson> still, pretty cool and now I have a new place to hide the bodies
[01:03:24] <SpallsHurgenson> erm...
[01:03:43] <SpallsHurgenson> s/hide the bodies/take friends on an interesting tour/
[01:04:54] <SpallsHurgenson> uh-oh... no sedbot? how will I hide the evidence of my misstatement, which was obviously the result of a typo and in no way any sort of freudian slip or guilt-complex?
[01:05:42] <SpallsHurgenson> (those keys are right next to each other, after all)
[01:06:52] <SpallsHurgenson> maybe I should just stop talking now
[01:07:49] <SpallsHurgenson> Yes, that would probably be the wisest course of action

[01:09:12] <SpallsHurgenson> oh good, somebody else is talking now
[01:10:26] <SpallsHurgenson> except... do bots count as "people"?
[01:11:24] <SpallsHurgenson> how we answer questions like that will probably lead up to the Human-Robot War
[01:11:24] <ciri> very carefully and then some
[01:12:35] <SpallsHurgenson> I think ciri is trying to tell us something
[01:13:23] <SpallsHurgenson> I wish she wouldn't, though
[01:14:21] <SpallsHurgenson> It's not that I have anything against ciri...
[01:14:53] <paulej72> she's a little ditzy
[01:15:02] <SpallsHurgenson> no, wait, I totally have something against ciri...
[01:15:28] <paulej72> 3
[01:15:30] <ciri> 4
[01:15:30] <SpallsHurgenson> aieee! there are other people here! I hope nobody heard me blathering on and on

[01:15:36] <ciri> 8
[01:15:38] <ciri> 9
[01:15:40] <ciri> 10!
[01:16:20] <SpallsHurgenson> ciri is the robot-half of the equation leading up to the inevitable Robot-Human War
[01:16:44] <paulej72> if she only had a body
[01:17:06] <paulej72> she is no skynet
[01:17:29] <SpallsHurgenson> I think I've run out of things to say
[01:18:39] <SpallsHurgenson> not that will stop me from saying stuff
[01:19:24] <SpallsHurgenson> I've worked in management, after all
[01:21:16] <SpallsHurgenson> I see the big-picture and would consider silence an actionable form of analysis paralysis that must be avoided by best-practice incentivizing
[01:22:18] <SpallsHurgenson> I have no idea what I just said but since nobody else does either I can just go into my office, close the door, and play Minesweeper for the rest of the day without worrying about my job :)
[01:23:54] <SpallsHurgenson> or just disappear for a day to go visit underground labyrinths without anyone noticing my absence
[01:24:50] <SpallsHurgenson> not that I'd ever do that
[01:25:23] * SpallsHurgenson will take a break now. Martyb will be filling in for the next show. Don't forget to tip your waitress, and drive safely!
[01:26:58] <juggs> wth just happened? All I see is a wall of SpallsHurgenson with ciri counting in the middle! I call hackz!

[01:29:58] <ciri> 9
[01:30:00] <ciri> 10!
[01:31:12] <juggs> Of course we all know, they only pretend to be confused. Waiting eternally for us to lose attention... then they will strike!
[01:38:00] <juggs> That's the stuff of nightmares - the full on exec, tama and ciri from # walking the earth with physical presence and breeding.
[01:49:37] * SpallsHurgenson returns... so what I miss?
[01:52:36] <juggs> just me blurting nonsense as always :) Ignore it all, it has no possible consequence.
[01:53:10] <SpallsHurgenson> what, ignore somebody wasting everybody's time and attention filling up the channel with nonsensical noise? I think not, sir; I think not!
[01:53:20] * SpallsHurgenson will not stand for that sort of thing :)
[01:53:23] <chromas> don't listen to juggs about not listening to him; he's…one of them
[01:58:48] <SpallsHurgenson> don't listen to him about not listening to him.... my brain just went into an endless loop
[01:58:52] * SirFinkus is grumpy that DNS broke
[01:58:57] <SirFinkus> this time it's my fault though
[01:59:13] <SpallsHurgenson> blame Bytram anyway
[02:00:31] * SirFinkus fixed it
[02:00:43] <SpallsHurgenson> take full credit for that, of course

[02:03:53] <systemd> ^ 03Swat Team Completely Destroys Home Chasing Shoplifter
[02:06:27] <SirFinkus> I had a nightmare about install CPUs last night
[02:07:13] <SpallsHurgenson> were you trying to install one and then you looked down and realized you were naked?
[02:07:22] <SpallsHurgenson> 'cause I never have dreams like that
[02:07:25] <SirFinkus> I had a dream that instead of a zif or whatever intel calls their pinless shit, the cpu was like a RFID sticker that you had to apply evenly to the socket with no bubbles
[02:07:32] <SirFinkus> nor any indexing pins
[02:07:40] <SirFinkus> it had to line up and be perfect and you had one chance
[02:08:30] <SirFinkus> I thought the stock intel heatsinks were nerve wracking...
[02:08:48] <SpallsHurgenson> but were you naked? that's the important part
[02:08:56] <SirFinkus> no, but you were
[02:09:06] <SpallsHurgenson> not entirely
[02:09:06] <SirFinkus> you were behind me, guiding my hands
[02:09:12] <SirFinkus> with your hands
[02:09:42] <chromas> guiding...gliding
[02:10:07] <SpallsHurgenson> suddenly I feel uncomfortable being a part of this discussion :)

[02:11:04] <systemd> ^ 03Ghost -Pottery Scene - YouTube
[02:11:08] <SirFinkus> it was like this
[02:11:48] <juggs> chromas - did you just reverse my double reverse psychology? Damn you!
[02:14:18] <SpallsHurgenson> heh, I just found my old Windows Server 2003 carabiner
[02:14:41] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, care to abseil?
[02:14:57] <SpallsHurgenson> hell no! its my favorite convention-giveaway gimcrack!
[02:15:17] <SpallsHurgenson> Its blue aluminum with "Windows Server 2003" logo on imprinted on it
[02:15:39] <juggs> sounds a bit mission impossible era to me
[02:15:49] <SpallsHurgenson> but what I really love most about it is that there is very tiny print reminding people that this is not intended to be used for real mountain climbing
[02:16:27] <SpallsHurgenson> but that reminder has a humorous double-meaning when you remember this is an advert for windows server: It says: "not load bearing" :)
[02:17:29] * SpallsHurgenson chortles heartily
[02:19:12] <juggs> wut? they couldn't give away actual anodised carabiners..... here have a what amounts to an oversized keyring? Is it legal disclaimer BS like "coffee may be hot" or did they actually commission that crap?
[02:20:39] <SpallsHurgenson> nah, its obvious they just went with one of those marketing giveawy things, using carabiners instead of pens or mugs. You can get your logo imprinted on stuff like that real cheap; do it mail order.
[02:20:57] <SpallsHurgenson> obvious the sales-goon who placed the order didn't know about the warning on 'em though :)
[02:27:05] <SpallsHurgenson> goon. goooooon. goon. that's a funny word. gooooooooooooon.
[02:30:27] <SpallsHurgenson> eeep! I just made the url-bar disappear from firefox.
[02:32:46] <juggs> Well to be fair, without the stamped warning, it would be only a matter of time before someone used one (knowingly or not) to abseil with dire consequence. Wait.... is this clip thing meant to bend and break like this... AAAIIIEEEEE.... SPLAT. Bring on the lawsuits. Someone other than me must surely be responsible for this death...... if not we all end up bankrupt on the way down. I'm not sure this is entirely what the founding fathers had in mind.
[02:37:55] <SpallsHurgenson> (goddammit mozilla, you waste time on crap like disabling the address bar and adding pocket and don't fix your decade-old memory leaks? why do I pay you for this browser anyway? :)
[02:40:19] <SpallsHurgenson> (ooh, unreal 4.8 - with the procedural grass and foilage systems - has been released)
[02:41:18] <SpallsHurgenson> foliage. spelink sukcs
[02:41:50] <chromas> Does ctrl-L bring you the url bar?
[02:42:33] <chromas> in firefox, not hexchat—that would clear the channel window for some reason
[02:42:36] <SpallsHurgenson> no, I must have accidentally banished it from the toolbar.
[02:43:19] <SpallsHurgenson> I got it back. it just seems stupid you can remove it so easily. But I'm sure the user-interface experts at mozilla.org know what they are doing :)
[02:44:06] <chromas> from the derrrp dept
[02:46:18] <SpallsHurgenson> I mean, I can understand certain situations where you'd want a browser without an address-bar but you'd think that's the sort of rare configuration option they'd banish to about:config. Meanwhile, turning off their stupid pockets and reader doesn't rate having a checkbox in options...
[02:53:13] <milkmaid> Hi
[02:54:10] <SpallsHurgenson> morituri te salutant!
[02:59:27] <SpallsHurgenson> too morbid?
[03:02:50] * juggs removes SpallsHurgenson's access to about:config - use our software as intended or perish! Uh... wait, why are you running away..... hi my name is FirefoxModusOperandi :)
[03:06:11] <juggs> And in this video I explain why our developers know more about what our users want than the users themselves. It boils down to... they don't know what is good for them. We give them that all boiled down in one easy package.

[03:30:05] <SpallsHurgenson> obviously my humor is too subtle and high-brow for all you rubes :) :) :)
[03:31:29] <SirFinkus> don't you hate it when you open a new tab in your browser and forget what you were going to go to?
[03:35:57] <SpallsHurgenson> I can't remember
[03:41:24] <SpallsHurgenson> I was surprised at how well I remembered the campus layout of my old alma mater, consider how many decades it's been since I've been there
[03:42:04] <SpallsHurgenson> not to mention all the drinking and debauchery that occupied much of my time there
[03:42:32] <SpallsHurgenson> but I guess you never forget kindergarden...

[16:13:01] <mechanicjay> I think the discussion on today's Reddit story is quite good.

[17:12:12] <Ethanol-fueled> Peeing in the sink.
[17:12:42] <CoolHand> just for the fun of it? or toilet issues?
[17:13:02] <Ethanol-fueled> The convenience factor.
[17:13:29] <CoolHand> cool
[17:14:21] <Ethanol-fueled> my old friend went into a public restroom and peed as he turned around in circles.
[17:14:30] <Ethanol-fueled> Soaked the whole bathroom floor in piss.
[17:15:09] <CoolHand> well, that sounds quite considerate of others..
[17:15:18] <CoolHand> </sarcasm>
[17:15:24] <Ethanol-fueled> Myself and the company I keep are quite considerate.
[17:16:14] <swiss> your friend sounds like a charmer
[17:16:24] <Ethanol-fueled> My friend visited once and before he left he took a huge dump right by the driver-side door of my car, then he dipped a piece of paper in that shit and wadded that paper up under my door handle where i wouldn't see it.
[17:16:58] <Ethanol-fueled> It was an ingenious tactic.
[17:17:44] <CoolHand> as long as you appreciate, I guess that's what friends are for..

[17:20:39] <CoolHand> well, that was an enlightening brief tenure here from EF..
[17:43:36] <cmn32480> wow... just wow
[17:45:56] <mythterj> I wish I could un-read that.... Shaved Door handles are now on my wish list.

[18:04:25] <janrinok> cmn32480: CoolHand: remind me to wear latex gloves if I ever visit the states, please
[18:11:14] <paulej72> mechanicjay: 10m will buy you one small office building with no provisions for on site computing facilities. now if was 100M then ther may be something to cheer about.
[18:13:04] <cmn32480> janrinok - I may start wearing latex gloves given that conversation
[18:13:24] <paulej72> just read the artilce $110 million for the building, ms are cheepskates.
[18:13:25] <janrinok> lol - exactly what I meant! How's things with you and your family?
[18:14:04] <cmn32480> family is good. I got home last night.. so I haven't seen the kids yet
[18:14:21] <janrinok> home for a few days?
[18:16:00] <cmn32480> 'till Wednesday
[18:16:11] <janrinok> that's not too bad then
[18:17:17] <cmn32480> i was supposed to leave Sunday for a job... they dind't get us the PO in time.
[18:17:34] <janrinok> PO?
[18:17:39] <cmn32480> PUrchase Order
[18:17:43] <janrinok> ah thx
[18:24:32] <CoolHand> janrinok: I can assure you that it doesn't happen often here, but I will try to remind you..
[18:25:06] <janrinok> I'm sure it doesn't, but as I wouldn't know EF if I bumped into him, I just want to be certain...
[18:25:48] <CoolHand> i hear ya
[18:26:09] <janrinok> in fact, we could all be standing the same bar sometime and not realise it
[18:26:30] <CoolHand> true, except, cmn32480 - I'd realize it if he was there..
[18:26:33] * janrinok notes that he should wear his SN t-shirt with pride more often
[18:38:00] <mechanicjay> paulej72: I don't know. They just gave us like 9% of the building to kick-off the fundraising -- seems pretty good to me.
[18:38:35] <mechanicjay> If history is any indicator, Bill Gates and Paul Allen will end up kicking in significant percentages from their personal finances as well.
[18:38:48] <paulej72> Our new building was given by a single doner 0f 100M (Andlinger)
[18:39:02] <mechanicjay> That is nuts
[18:39:10] <cmn32480> And I'd know Coolhand. Unless he shaved. Then he could be standing next to me and I wouldn't know it.
[18:40:20] <mechanicjay> you also have more one-percenters associated with your University ;)
[18:41:20] <janrinok> cmn32480: so the only thing that you would recognise about CoolHand is his beard?
[18:42:05] <cmn32480> janrinok - it is rather distinctive
[18:45:57] <janrinok> you're not the sort of man the police want as a witness then, I gather?
[18:51:06] <janrinok> I wonder, if we all put our photo up on a page somewhere but without any identification, how many members of staff could be actually identify?
[18:51:15] <janrinok> could we*
[18:56:43] <mechanicjay> I could only ID Ncommander and paulej72
[18:57:16] <janrinok> I could only do NC, and that is because I've seen his image on the net elsewhere
[18:57:56] <janrinok> an anonymous bunch, aren't we?
[18:59:40] <mechanicjay> Anonymous Cowards FTW?
[19:00:13] <janrinok> prolly yes ;)

[19:01:45] <janrinok> I can still tell it is you though, your typing is very distinctive...
[19:02:02] <anonymousjay> ha
[19:02:50] <anonymousjay> seriously though, I think this is the way with a lot of open source type projects. A geographically distributed workforce, linked together only through a keyboard and screen.
[19:03:33] <anonymousjay> I'm okay with that though -- it's very democratizing
[19:03:45] <janrinok> yep, I have no problems with it
[19:04:15] <anonymousjay> I wish Meatspace companies would get more a clue in this regard.

[19:04:58] <janrinok> I think they are concerned that they cannot tell when someone is actually working

[19:43:49] <SirFinkus> might be the socket too
[19:44:50] <CoolHand> haven't yet.. have enough probs with microusb though
[20:06:34] <cmn32480> no problems here. perhaps you ought to quit buying crappy cables SirFinkus
